Storer Studios

The creation of Storer Studios in Atlanta in the mid-1960’s seemed like a good idea at the time but in retrospect it was about five or more years too soon. The studio grew but nonetheless struggled for about four years. Eventually, history proved that Atlanta was not yet prepared to support a nine thousand square foot soundstage, editing, sound and animation operations despite a valiant effort by all the people who worked for the studio and did their best to make it a success. The demise of Storer Studios became inevitable due to to non-payment for post-production by the New York Production company for the feature length film.When Storer finally closed, Bob went on to pursue his interest in Motion Pictures and to establish a successful equipment rental and grip service in Miami.

Together for Days

Together for Days is a 1972 blaxploitation independent film directed by Michael Schultz, and stars Clifton Davis, Lois Chiles, Northern Calloway and Samuel L. Jackson in his film debut. It was shot entirely in Atlanta, Georgia. Leonard Jackson also played Phil and was cast in Steven Spielberg's The Color Purple thirteen years later.

The film is about a romance between an African-American man and a Caucasian woman and the reaction of their friends and family to the mixed race relationship.

On May 6, 2010, Jackson appeared on The Tonight Show and joked that he was glad that host Jay Leno was unable to find a copy of the film. He also said it had been re-released sometime later under the title Black Cream.
